My daughter really doesn't have a problem with wearing clothes that I don't like(such as too revealing), but she does know that at any time Mom has the right to have her change into something more appropriate (My problem is that she ALWAYS wants to wear jeans and t-shirts!). Just because something is in style doesn't mean that it's appropriate to wear! I invite her to have her friends over to our house so that I can know her friends. Friends' morals can rub off on our own children. You will reap what you sow with your children. The time and energy that you put into raising your children to be good moral and godly people will pay off big time in the years to come. Sorry, but I have such wonderful kids (not that we haven't had a few problems) that I could always go on and on. I feel that my husband and I have done a wonderful job in raising our family.

The morals of this country are horrible!!!!!! Just look at the TV for five minutes. There is too much sex without marriage. If you used our television programs to determine what is acceptable behavior in our country, you would think that part of a first date is spending the night together. My goodness, it's no wonder the pregnancy rate among young teens is on the rise.
And all the controversy over homosexuality. People, people, what are we doing??? Sodom and Gammorah were doing what is being done in America today, and just look what God did to them. We need to wake up and look at what is happening and make a move for a change. We the people can make a change. (And no, I'm not a right wing Republican, because I'm sick of big business running our country. I was with Bush until he invaded Iraq. That's when he lost me. I thought we were chasing terrorists who had hurt us. What was "Operation Iraqi Freedom" all about? I thought we were doing an "Operation Wipe out those Terrorists". Where are the WMD's? Now you really think I'm nuts, right??? No, just using reason, to make my decisions, not following some party line.)

I worked in a courthouse for many years and that was an enlightening experience as to what is going on nowadays. A majority of the people coming into the office for whatever reason were rude, couldn't speak decent English, half dressed, had no idea of what planet they were on and could care less that they were facing any type of punishment. There was absolutely no respect for anything or anyone including the judges. It was just unbelieveable.
It's very scary....the world today and the world my grandchildren are growing up in. We have to stick together and keep the religion in our children's lives and teach them good morals and value to live by. If that is instilled in our kids at a young age it will usually be there when they're older. It's the parents that do not teach their children that are ruining it for those of us that do. |

I think the lack of respect comes from parents who no longer demand respect from their children. They are more like their child's "buddy" and "friend" than their "parent." Heck, if my mother was young enough to be my sister, I probably wouldn't respect her much, either.
